Spelling is a weak point for many people. So are writing skills. So I do not judge a person’s inteligence by their spelling, unless it is really bad. However, if someone speaks poorly, saying “ain’t” or double negatives (I don’t have no time), then I think they are uneducated.
I found a realtor on RealtyTimes, with so many bad spelling mistakes, I made fun of her and put her article in a post here. Some people thought I was too rough on her. “She’s a foreigner, give her a break” I was told. Well, “she needs to get someone to proofread a report that she publishes on Realty Times”, was my response. That lady was an example of a stupid realtor.
But people like SD Realtor, Bob Casagrand, John Hokkannen, and sdrealtor are intelligent people. They are still making a living in these hard times.
